Looking for the "right" Predator color grading...

Bit of interesting info

Watched a video on FB today about Odeon Leicester Sqaure and their 70mm print of Murder on the Orient Express

The 70mm reel that they show as an example was Predator! Hopefully that means a 70mm screening might be coming to London

If anyone is still working on this, I can offer a 1080 HDTV cap that seems to match the DVD colors, lots of grain, no DVNR:

Nice! Maybe it would be possible to use both German and French caps to get a logo-free version - using the DVD, or, better, a third cap without a logo on top right to get rid of the residual logo...

Looks way better, not so DNR'd as well.

Just read on FB from a pretty reliable source that the Apple have a copy of Predator on their services from a 4K scan but without DNR?!

Will see if I can get screen caps

Looks great! And not DNR'ed like Bluray master

I love the comment from the owner: 

"Some scenes are a grain fest but overall I'm very impressed."

Irony is dead

So is it possible access to this 4K remastered version and capture it in 1080p for a FanRes BD release?

Sync it up to the laserdisc PCM Stereo audio mix and it's goddamn sexual tyrannosaurs time!

Apple seem to have it sealed up pretty tight. To stream 4K you need the Apple TV 4K and a compatible 4K display. Anything less than a 4K display and it will probably revert to the 1080p stream. You would probably need a HDFury or similar to feed a capture device.
